About this episode
Why do we feel restless in our own lives, like we should be somewhere else, doing something more? In this episode, we break down the feeling of boredom and dissatisfaction with ordinary life, using an apt Jerry Seinfeld stand-up clip as a launch point. We explore whether this restlessness is a modern problem or just part of being human, why patience matters, and how embracing the ordinary can actually lead to a richer, more meaningful life. Plus, we dive into the power of myth and story in transforming the way we see our everyday experiences.
